This scholarship was established by the family of Ann Marie Piasecki in her memory and honor. Annie, as she liked to call herself, would like to be remembered for the person she was; a kind, loving, caring individual who tried to see the good in everyone. A graduate of Bishop Hoban High School, now Holy Redeemer High School, Ann Marie died in an automobile accident December 6, 2004, before she was able to graduate college.
